The Golden State Valkyries are back for season two.

In this episode of Podhalla, Garrett and Brian Gonzales dive deep into the 2026 WNBA season of the Valks. With the season tipping off, the guys tackle some fun questions facing the Valkyries as they take the court at Chase Center.

From individual accolades to roster depth, we break down who will emerge as the face of the franchise. Will it be a veteran presence leading the way, or will the youth movement take over? We debate the Golden State Valkyries MVP race and predict who will carry the load as the team's primary scoring threat.

The spotlight then shifts to the international sensation, Justė Jocytė. The Lithuanian phenom has high expectations surrounding her rookie campaign—but does she have what it takes to secure a spot on the All-WNBA All-Rookie team? Brian and Garrett weigh in on her fit within Natalie Nakase’s system and whether she can handle the physicality of the WNBA from day one.

Finally, we wrap things up with a "Super Duper Bold Prediction" that you won't want to miss. Whether you're a day-one Valkyries fan or just getting into the WNBA, this is the essential preview for the 2026 season.
